Joseph Campbell On Spiritual Rebirth
Sometimes the only way to recognize we’ve aged is through the news of a baby cousins graduation, random aches throughout the body, and photographs that moments trapped in memory. Photographs reveal the illusive nature of time; revealing that with every choice we make the earth shall continue to spin around the sun. I found a […]
Joseph Campbell On Bliss
Most people spend their days doing meaningless activities. Few people have learned to spend their time on a craft that demands our highest selves. We’ve forgotten our beauty. Which leads us to always begging for the eyes of people to save us. As we discover our lives have no purpose we grow wearier and wearier […]
The Hero Journey
The Hero Journey by Joseph Campbell might be the most needed text for our spiritual debasement. We contain the same stardust as Buddha, Christ, Shakespeare, and Homer, and must learn to embody their lives. Our relationship to our internal world determines the outcome of our lives. Wisdom comes from acting with the knowledge of our […]
Mastering The Spiritual World.
The masters live between two worlds. Our heroes reside in the eternal and the temporal receiving information and actualizing them in present time.

Joseph Campbell on your life is the fruit of your own doing. Becoming a Hero through trusting life.
Mindfulness teaches us to be sensitive of the internal complexity happening within our being, and through this path we develop empathy for the world. When I learned why I respond to chaos with so much fear, anxiety, and apprehension, the world opened itself before me and I discovered my brother suffering from the same ogres. […]
Joseph Campbell on creating a inner sanctuary through silence allows for spiritual transformation.
Affirmation of our blues–fears, anxieties, and doubts– provides a key awareness for our maturation; this awareness is a separation of our sensations from reality. An acknowledgement of where we want to be is our path to healing; speaking about our troubles takes us within our pain and forges a commitment into walking past the threshold. […]
